Reg Lewis went to Italy hoping to make several Hercules/Strongman movies. He ended up only making this one MACISTE AGAINST THE MONSTERS. The working conditions during filming were so severe that Reg packed his bags and returned home, abandoning all the other projects. (I would have liked to have seen Reg in those unmade movies). If you watch the Kirk Morris movie COLOSSUS AND THE HEADHUNTERS, you will spot Reg Lewis in the opening scenes during the volcanic eruption. Reg was supposed to be in this movie but instead the produces found a young Kirk Morris to take Reg's place. Too bad for the fans of this genre. If you look at the photos in the gallery, (posted by me), you will see a boob shot of Margaret Lee being held by Reg. I am sure the producers were hoping to make a "different" type of Hercules movie other than a simple FIRE MONSTERS AGAINST THE SON OF HERCULES movie. Larry Anderson.
